Samsung Brings Back Ronaldo And Messi To Save Humanity From An Alien Invasion

Samsung released the dramatic conclusion to its months-long alien
invasion saga Tuesday with a six-minute video chronicling the
second half of what the company is calling the most important
soccer match ever.

The video is part
of a larger series created by the mobile company
following a dream team of soccer players as they attempt to fight
off a group of space invaders planning to enslave the human race.

The previous
installment in the series left off at halftime with the human
team — led by stars like Lionel Messi, Landon Donovan, and
Cristiano Ronaldo — behind by a score of 3-1.

The finale — which of course shows off Samsung products like the
Galaxy S5 smartphone — opens with manager Franz Beckenbauer
talking strategy with his team and preparing them for the second
half.

Things start well when the humans score early in the half, and
get even better when Wayne Rooney ties the game with a second
goal in the 88th minute.

Rooney follows with a rough tackle, giving up a penalty kick near
the goal. Luckily, super goalie Iker Casillas saves the day.

As the game draws to a close, Ronaldo comes to the rescue,
scoring the team's fourth goal.

The match ends shortly after the goal that puts the Galaxy team
up 4-3, and celebration ensues. The ad concludes 50 years
down the road with an older Messi and Ronaldo looking at the sky,
only to find another alien spaceship approaching Earth.

So perhaps we haven't seen the last of Samsung's animated
soccer-themed films.
